the libusb actually have pkg-config support. It is in the CVS and the
Ubuntu guys already backported it. So I can safely consider this a bug.
A package that never had or never will have pkg-config is a different
story.

Some embedded systems might not have pkg-config at all. And this will
mean you can't even configure it. Using the ${prefix} or ${usb_prefix}
to be more precise is sane and it can be modified with --with-usb.
